DUCK TALES
- Ryan Getzlaf scored 31 goals and 87 points two seasons ago, but he entered the NHL's Christmas break with one goal in 29 games. (Plus other disappointing NHL players). [CBC]
- Bruce Boudreau is lost for answers as the Ducks flounder. [Sports Illustrated]
- As everyone knows, Bob Murray has ripped the Ducks publicly, and its all over the mainstream hockey press. Here's a link to an article about it! [NBC Sports]
- Question of the day: Rickard Rakell - who has been playing with the twins - busted his points slump on Tuesday against the New York Rangers (it was still a loss, of course). Could the first line, despite its players' individual failings, be the key to escaping the Ducks' doldrums? [CBS Sports]
- A Q&A with Andrew Cogliano. [Anaheim Ducks]
- Also:
Dreger: "I don't think Murray's going to have a choice. I think he's going to have to make a coaching change very early in the New Year."
